Chancellor Merkel came up to give a speech on how the extreme measures (set to start on Monday) were calculated, and gave a explanation to the logic involved.
Criticism? A lot. It came from the Green Party, AfD Party, FDP Party and Linke Party.
I would suggest it was the lowest point since becoming Chancellor in 2005.
Some of the criticism was correct. An example....short-work pay-coverage was strongly recommended to go up to the 90-percent level, and even 100-percent for the bottom wage-earners.
The fact that child-care centers are still in operations but restaurants aren't? Another example. There's no science or data to say any of the surge on infections....relate to restaurants.
Another example....aid for cultural circles and small business operations should have been calculated and been part of this shut-down for November.
If you gaze across Twitter today in Germany.....a lot of negative hype directed at CDU and SPD political figures.
The fact that an election is barely 11 months away? Yeah, this is fairly bothersome at this point. Both the CDU and SPD parties may have lost public support.
